Name: Donna Meredith, PMP

Membership: Lead Member, Integrated Production

Discipline: 15 years in Integrated Production

Location: New York, NY

Joined: Lead Member Since 2024

Elevator Pitch: With over 15 years in design and technology, my throughline is curiosity, and problem-solving with systems-thinking. I build and mentor teams, operationalize programs, oversee and guide production processes, and love turning impossible ideas into reality through strategic collaboration. As a production operations consultant, my specialties span digital, emerging technology, software and product development, and integrated production. As a Producer, my clients have included Fortune 100 companies and public sector / non-profit organizations — from producing AI business intelligence platforms, to 360 marketing campaigns for Verizon, LG Electronics, and Sony Honda Mobility, to digital masterplanning for the American Museum of Natural History, and a permanent interactive installation with Bloomberg Philanthropies for Bloomberg LP's European HQ.

Certifications: PMP

SaaS tools of Choice: I love learning new tools. Current favorites are Smartsheet, Airtable, Monday, Figma, Miro, and all things AI.

Consulting Style: Human-centered — What teams say versus what they do are often divergent. I prefer to engage through lenses of diverse user and stakeholder needs to identify painpoints, provide recommendations, and guide workflow adjustments and outcomes. Providing clear expectations, usable documentation and room for continued evolution and growth is key.

Coaching Style: educate, guide, support, and inspire

Secret Sauce: pick up the phone — connect through shared values.

Spirit Animal: (Night) Owl

Words To Live By: Kindness. Curiosity. Energy begets energy.
